title: Maturation of bacteriophage SPPI DNA: limited precision in the sizing of mature bacteriophage genomes.
abstract: Maturation of bacteriophage SPPI is imprecise. Although terminally redundant and circularly permuted molecules were always formed, individual molecules varied by more than 200 base pairs from each other.
